From what I understand, (according to Etna's diary), when Krichevskoy returned to the castle after stopping an invasion from the Alternate
Netherworld, his dying wish was that Etna raised Laharl to become the next Overlord.

Then, shortly afterward, Etna's memories were stolen by Maderas who ordered her to poison Laharl. It was concluded in Episode 5 that the poison
was the cause of Laharl's 2 year nap.

What's confusing me is that in the beginning of the game, Laharl didn't know that his father had died 2 years before, which made it seem
that he had slept through his death. But, that doesn't make sense if you consider the above.

A possibilty is that Laharl was awake when Krichevskoy died and was completely unaware that it had happened.

yeah but the king does come back. in the good ending after mid-boss arives you see Laharl's mother apear beside him in shadow form. thats saying
the King has reincarnated as mid-boss. and thats who lamington was talking to in some of those cut scenes in Celestia when they don't talk.

Wait...was it reincarnation??? i thought he was weakened by baal fight and went into hiding as vyers...although that wouldn't explain why his
spirit vanishes...although....he does come back in disgaea 2....this's weird...

as for laharl's father dying before he went to sleep, wouldn't the simple explanation for why he didn't know about it be that he fell
asleep before then was posioned he said he was gonna sleep for like 2 weeks orignially right?

also Vyers comes off like an idiot most the time rather then his father who seemed to be more majestic. the only time Laharl really gets a hint at
them being the same is when he goes to celestia and Laharl has other things going through his head at the time and Vyers isn't gonna be very high
up there.
